behind the scenes

So a lot of my friends are trying to learn how to edit and often come to me about it. I'm by far the best and still have much to learn. I work strictly on photoshop CS6 nothing else. I also work with a mouse. Apparently this blows some people away. With that being said, the biggest question is, how do I edit peoples skin. I have spent countless hours watching you tube videos on editing. This my biggest piece of advice. Go look up what you want to learn, watch, hit pause and follow along until you got it. Try it over and over and eventually it will become your own style. :) I hope this is helpful for some people. Cheers.
